@jeferssonandresramir
Supply chain planning leader with 10+ years driving demand forecasting, S&OP/IBP, and inventory reliability.
What I'm looking for
I’m a supply chain professional with 10+ years of experience in demand planning, sales forecasting, supply planning, S&OP/IBP, international logistics, procurement, and inventory management across LATAM markets. I translate commercial signals, historical trends, and market insights into actionable demand plans, while keeping planning governance strong and practical.
In my current role as Sr. Supply Planner LATAM & Canada at Medtronic, I lead demand and supply planning across LATAM and Canada portfolios. I coordinate the regional S&OP/IBP process across commercial, operations, and supply teams, manage inventory visibility and supply risk prevention, and help sustain target service levels through regional replenishment priorities.
Previously, as a Demand Planner for the Andean HUB at Becton Dickinson, I led demand planning across multiple business units and improved alignment between demand, inventory, and replenishment planning. Earlier experience includes Foreign Trade Analyst work supporting import/export logistics and procurement planning under S&OP dynamics, plus Purchasing Manager roles where I owned sourcing negotiations, cost analysis, and supply continuity for local and imported materials.
